A street called Spinner's end (two locations have been
found on a map), a house located at the end of > it - 
AND possibly a Spinner died there.
Famous spinners in literature:
Legendary witch who put Sleeping Beauty to her famous
sleep...
The elf who could spin gold out of straw... -- 
The Fates...
Arachne; and the goddess, Athene...
Oh, and I suppose that it *could* be Sirius' other house. 
Particularly if Sirius comes back as Stuffy Boardman...
But it could belong to Flamels, too. And I'd say that
Perenelle DOES know how to spin - what woman didn't 6-7
centuries ago? (and they could be alive. Albus may have
erred in thinking that the stone was destroyed - or Nicholas
made a new one - and well, it was never suggested that their
death at the destruction of the stone would be instant!)
Actually I kind of like the idea of Flamels-- who might
even be Harry's relatives... ancestors: maybe they had a 
aughter (- or granddaughter - or-- well, you get it...)
- who married a Potter: a wizard who may even have been
working with clay those days... or some ancestor to Lily
& Petunia Evans...

Hmmm ... or maybe it is something as simple as the death 
of Aragog and its effect on the demography of the Forbidden
Forest? JKR has stated that Aragog had a strong influence
on keeping the spiders in the FF in line (his role in the
confrontation and capture of Ron, Harry, and Fang in CoS)
and his death might free the spiders from the obligation 
to Hagrid and make them more predatory in accordance with 
their nature.
